Is It Wrong For A Man To Live With His In-law? Advise Needed Please by landmark86: 9:51pm On Oct 21, 2018
A brother of mine got married last week to a daughter of one of the so called rich man in my home town. My brother work with a private organisation were they paid him #35,000 monthly but the wife still in school running a post graduate program.
Yesterday the father to his wife gave him a key to a duplex within their compound for him and his wife to move in and a brand new toyota car has a gift, but my parents oppose him moving into that house.
Please should he reject the offer of accommodation? Cos the family truly like him.

Your advise is needed, thanks.

If his in-laws can afford such gifts, why can't they secure an accomodation for them outside the family house.


1. As time progresses in that marriage, your brother will lost all the respects he has both from his wife and the in-laws.


2. He might end up becoming an errand boy to his in-laws.


3. His actions as a man on his wife will be limited.


4. May God help him.

God is blessing someone and you guys want to use family drama to spoil things for him

Pls you people should leave him alone

What will 35,000 salary get for him as married man even if the wife is from a rich home

Do you know that he is going to sacrifice alot to keep that marriage and still be a happy man there after


What ever makes him happy as far as that marriage is concerned, you people must give him the support he needs

Who doesn't like good things?

Would you approve same for your brother?

The familiarity will get so worse dat d wife will see nothing wrong with addressing him anyhow or deprive him of his due honor. And when he brings up a complain, he will firstly be seen as an ingrate who does not appreciate what was given him, then they'll support their daughter's terrible actions especially the mother and sisters-n-law bcus d men might understand except their minds have been poisoned by the women in d house. They will ridicule him to nothing with untamed mouth. Where he go hear him matter, him sef go shock.

And if he doesn't go home often, even you(op) and ur parents and other family members would not reckon with him again, because you'l all think its him and his wife alone that have been enjoying their money not knowing he's been suffering ridicule ..this one that you're sounding like a concerned brother now, that will not be d case later.

So if he's wise and doesn't want to lose on both sides, he shd stay in his house or better still, let d father-in-law buy them a duplex somewhere else or just settle him with money so he'll build his house. Its a wife that goes to husband's house not d other way round. For them to even ask u to come live in their compound house sef ..bro, they're already selling you off small small. Very soon you won't even be able to make a choice of food in dat house again.

it depends on his type of personality. If he is free easygoing jovial man who care less about trivial unspoken things ,then no probs as he gonna enjoy every moment. Also if d parents and d girl are well up religiously ,morally and ethically, why shouldn't he live with them? But he too should strive to rise up n make more money

Where you see the money ?

If he can afford to pay for rent, he wouldn't settle for that

If he maintains humbleness to his wife family, he is the one to enjoy

That's what goes with marrying a rich man's daughter

You can't eat your cake and have it

You're right because you're reasoning like a woman. No reasonable man will accept this. The guy will lose respect even among his male friends and colleagues.

That guy in question is ready to loose all form of respect from every angle

In as much as the life is leaving now is far more better than what he was leaving

A man who is cocky or has eggo won't settle for that

Only a humble man will accept such offer
Re: Is It Wrong For A Man To Live With His In-law? Advise Needed Please by Eberechi24(f): 8:06pm On Oct 22, 2018
Why I love women folks is that they don't allow trivial issue to deprived them of happiness, their interest come first that is why we have 25yr Queen in Yoruba land.
In life you gotta make some harmless sacrifice to attain to a certain height.

you can't have it all in life. keep your ego and enjoy what life got to offer.

I love your point about personality.. Its very true. Some ppl don't take every offensive words or actions too seriously.

But about the parents. My brother parents who are religiously, morally and ethically upright would consider establishing the young man and his wife on their own than going for this option they chose. This thing they did in d name of love for their daughter is not ethical and so do not expect ethical uprightness from their daughter. What they did is an extension of the over pampering they've been used to giving the girl. Of perhaps something else is involved.

its never a good idea becoz as couple you dont learn to grow your own ways, in one or two she will says i cant do this becoz my parents dont like it


if you are living away from parents you are not tied to what parents think you should behave or run you home


when comes to such things always ask yourself why your parents dont live with their own parents? excpet if there are ill

every man and woman wants his peace freedom from his/her in-law what the point to say you are married but you still live with parents within building walls

Tell your bro to reject the gift, the man wan use am do money ritual. He should continue paying his tithe at church out of his 35k salary, one day he will acquire his own duplex.

By the way, does your brother's father in-law have another daughter ripe for marriage and would you by chance know if he has another duplex to give to another new son in-law? undecided

He just lost his status as Head of family and power as husband to his in-laws. Just a matter of time and he would be converted to errand boy (if he's not already)

The Solution:

It is better he takes money from his in-laws to rent his own apartment but must ensure that he is more productive to service it afterwards or he should live within his means.

BTW The story looks like a nollywood script
